Why in the world did they decide to put Dustin up against Evel Dick in such a tight vote and with an obvious mystery vote always appearing? Would it not have been much safer putting either Zach or Jen up? Were they trying to stay on their good side? It maybe the biggest blunder yet. You can bet that America is going to tell Eric to oust Dustin. We are in for another shocker on Thursday. The <LNC> will only have a distrought Amber going for HOH since Jameka and Jessica can't try for it and Eric will need to go on the Donatos side since they will know that he was the switch vote. It becomes Dick, Daniele, Zach, Jen and Eric vs Amber, Jameka and Jessica.

Jessica did it because arrogant Dustin thinks Dick has no chance to win against him... why would any of his minions vote against him? He's the king..

You are absolutely correct. Eric should have know this could/would happen based on the AP vote against Dustin. Like I said in another thread, D/D are already gunning for Eric. Since Amber and Eric are the only ones from their alliance who can go for HOH, odds are one of the Donato 4 will win it and nominate Eric and Jameka for eviction.

If only this would happen...LOL...I am snoozing throughout the whole season. I hope something happens to finally jump-start-it.

the thought of this is so funny... imagine Dick's surprise upon realizing that Eric's 'mystery vote' saved him

i don't know if he'll be relieved or just more irritated

I'm sure Eric does know this could happen, but it was his job to help get Dustin nominated so he has no choice either originally or after the POV. I can just imagine the outcry if he was trying to stop them from putting Dustin up!

I believe that Zach promised Jessica to vote out Dick which would make it 3-3. I think Dick will convince Zach to stay with him.

But Lucy, Eric has failed on many of his nomination tasks (remember how hard he campaigned for Nick to go?).

Zach said he told Jessica he'd vote how she wanted, but he also said he didn't know if he'd actually do it.

Eric is acting clueless... he needs to stop and think about America's votes. Because NOT ONCE HAS AMERICA VOTED to nominate Dick or Daniele, and Dick did not receive the eviction vote when he was on the block before. But Eric's ego is too big and he's not paying attention. If he stopped to think, he'd realize that D/D are not hated by anyone but the herd in the house.

Can't he just not vote the way America wants him too. Won't he just not make the money for that?

Nope. He doesn't actually cast the vote. He knows who America wants evicted, and Julie just chats him up as she says that "America has voted to evict [HG]." He can mess up all other tasks, but that one task -- the eviction vote -- he has no control over.

No, he has to vote for whomever America chooses. Remember when he goes in to vote Julie just makes small talk with him as he doesn't cast his vote....his vote has already been decided.

It's dumb. First rule of BB--NEVER put anyone up unless you're willing to see them go.

It's all up to Daniele, I don't see her as wanting her father to stay. She's okay with him going. She may vote for him to stay but she won't try her hardest to keep him. Even suspecting Eric messing with the votes, she won't try to convince Jen or Zach.
Dick may notice this and is resigned already to leave on Thursday anyway that he won't pressure Daniele at all.

I don't believe it. Daniele will stick with Dick until she is not in danger anymore.

I think Dustin's allowing himself to be put up is one of the dumbest moves I have seen in a long time and if he goes, will rank right up there with Marcellus' decision not to use the PoV.

Why do these people think it is good to put themselves in the line of fire?

Sheesh!

She's already working it Spunky. Her conversation with Zach is proof of that. She's already planted the seed in his head and he's thinking about it. It will be his dumbest move if he leaves Dustin in there. Actually it would be a dumb move for Eric and Jessica as well. Amber, Dustin, and Jameka are tighter than they are with Eric and Jessica. They are acting all tight this week because Jessica has HOH. But you watch, if Dustin stays he will come after all them once he gets Dani, Zach, and Jen out. They are at the bottom of his herd.

One word: arrogance. Dustin wants so badly to tell Dick off, and thinks so highly of himself, that he can't see how stoopd that move is.

Eric did not directly have a responsibility with Dustin going up on the block. He hid in his room because of the "cold shoulder" task and didn't get to speak to Jessica. In fact, after he came out of the deep freeze, he talked to Jessica and I think he acted like he was not happy with her decision.

Eric knew that the only way to guarantee his group has all the elimination votes was for him to go up on the block. He wussed out and didn't even try. Why, because he doesn't trust his group. Why doesn't he trust his group, because he made so many lies that were not needed, got caught in some of the lies and then responded by being even more shifty with his responses.

So in the end, he allowed Dustin to go up on the block knowing it could go either way. He could have offered himself up prior to the cold shoulder task. But Eric thought, hmmm maybe I'll let Dustin go up and then complete my task without looking at all the angles. Dumb move on Eric's part and another dumb move by Dustin.

I believe the biggest mistake of the LNC was when Dick encouraged Dani to break up the group too soon and it backfired. JMO.

Dfng, to be fair, Eric was never asked to give Jessica the "cold shoulder." He was asked to give her the "silent treatment."

Also, IMO, Eric did a great job convincing Jess to put Dustin up before he gave her the silent treatment. Did Eric really want a member of LNC5 on the block at the risk of being evicted? Dustin is the one who saved him last week, so I have a hard time believing that. I can't imagine he did this one for himself. JMO. Here are the youtubes of his conversation with Jessica convincing her to put Dustin on the block. Being that Dustin agreed to put himself there, it really wasn't a hard task for Eric to complete...lol.

Eric would convince Jessica to put up Dustin because it would save his own arse. If Eric had thought it out, he could've put himself up. That way, he had a guarantee of what the votes would be and there wouldn't be a hinky secret vote. Of course, then it'd be a tie, and Jessica would've had to break the tie. And that would imply trust. Eric took the chicken way out to ensure that he'd stay. No way does Eric have the cojones to put himself up as a pawn.
